This election is one of many times I have RUN. While you are here, please check out my RUN 5000 KILOMETRES TO FEED THE BODY AND MIND challenge and fundraiser: my 2021 running journey to support Food Banks, Literacy, and Education throughout Ontario.

I am supporting three charities whose work matters to me:

 

Feed Ontario

(Formerly the Ontario Association of Food Banks) unites food banks, industry partners, and local communities in their work to end hunger and poverty. Every $1 you donate provides three meals to an Ontarian in need.

Canadian Children's Literacy Foundation

promotes and develops literacy initiatives, champions literacy partners across Canada, and empowers people to build literacy skills in their homes and communities. In 2020, the Foundation partnered with Canadian Food Banks to put more than 130,000 children's books into the hands of kids. Literacy is something I have struggled with throughout my life, and am passionate about this cause.

Ontario Professional Engineers Foundation for Education

mission is to nurture engineering students into licensed engineers by inspiring academic and leadership excellence, providing financial assistance and connecting to mentors and employers. I have been on the board of the Foundation since 2018.
